I am a disabled person who has taken on a "community job"
The Letters in the Photos go together to make one long sign that says "your community"
I used to work at the Sydney Theatre Company in their workshops, but my capacity with my disability is much more reduced, and I also don't have access to Cutting equipment to make the primarily 2" x 1" frame – to mount the letters away on a 45°angle above (out of reach) above a two board notice sign on the entrance to a community housing building.
I have been given a small budget to fulfill the task. Everything up to this point I have paid for myself.
Each individual letter was designed painted and meant to be a various ranging in sizes to give it a newspaper print feel.
My task now is to come up with a framework that is simple and light – that will be approved by the community housing provider – BridgeHousing in Sydney/Glebe.
Once completed, BridgeHousing have asked me to contact their subcontractors to attach the whole sign above the noticeboard.
I have measured the space in situ above the noticeboard, and I am working on a set of working drawings/drafting to make the construction of the hopefully " floating framework" become a reality that the community can continue to work on example paint and prepare for the BridgeHousing subcontractors to attach to the wall.
